I'd be in touch with a realtor who knows the market well if I were you.

I am trying to get in touch with them about a house that they won at tax auction 3 years ago, but have gotten no response.

Message me if you want me to get in touch with them. 

This lets you access your home’s value without touching your savings, and the rates are typically lower than what you'd get with a hard money loan.Many first-time flippers also turn to hard money lenders, who focus on the property’s value and the flip's potential rather than your personal credit.

Does it really exist since one cant touch them anymore? 

It's not our mission to automate property management, but rather to scale with the right mix of personal touch and local resources.

Some lenders won't touch you for a year even.

You’ve got to be willing to stay in touch with sellers who aren’t ready today but might be down the road.

But to touch on some of your points:-Costs to build are probably some of the highest in the nation, other than maybe Telluride or other vacation destinations. 

@Jerry Zhang, I know this is no longer a viable deal, but my insights are:I am generally not touching a deal where household incomes are $31k.
